| 3 | Depression | Constipation; Slight "Drowsiness"; Inconsistence sleeping patern | This was a replacement of another anti depression drug | M | 46 | 2 weeks 150 1X day | 10/18/2016 | 4 | Depression | I was mistakenly taking 1 tablet a day which only made me have hallucinations and vivid dreams. After I increased to the prescribed dosage of 2 a day, I felt a lot better, no longer agitated so easily or feeling like staying in bed all day.

Lack of motivations to complete any tasks at home, muscles seem to worsen, felt like I lift weights on my arm n shoulder. At night, I fell asleep but my brain seem to wondering around, my eyes shut like I was staring in the darkness. Am I loosing my mind or what? I called my doctor to explained my symptoms, she prescribed me to a rapid release , twice a day on 75 mg.

I feel like i now have less control over my rage and am vocalizing it wayyyyy more than before med. Crying for no apparent reason or at the thought of going to work tomorrow. Ringing in my ears. Weird feeling in my head when I first take pill. Very vivid dreams (not bad ones). Clenching my jaw. | I was told it can take 2-4weeks for benefits to show so I am trying to fight through it. Hoping to get out of my negative mindset, have more energy,not get anxiety in social situations, have more self worth, do activities I once enjoyed, keep my house clean, you know just go be a part of society and enjoy life. First 3 days were doable because it was better than the weeks before I started taking med.Today was horrendous. I am angry and lashing out even at my poor kid and my eyes keep leaking tears all day off an on. Overall today is crappy. Ringing in ears all day! If it lasts through tomorrow I probably will lose my job so hoping tomorrow is bearable. (not meds fault about job that is my personal issue) just wish it was instant relief from anger outburst and crying. | F | 33 | 4 days 150x2 | 6/20/2016 | 5 | Depression | I did have super rough side effects, with my ears ringing and really terrible nausea, but it goes away after a few weeks, and this is the best I have ever felt on a medication. So worth it. | F | 23 | 9 months 450 | 6/16/2016 | 1 | depression and anxiety | I have severe nausea, itchiness, a really bad headache, could not concentrate, very restless--overall feel terrible.

I HAD TO SWITCH FROM PRISTQUE BCAUSE OF PRICE AND BETWEEN THE WITHDRAWAL AND THE SIDE EFFECT FROM THIS MED I AM SO DEPRESSED AND NOT THINKING CLEARLY | This is making me feel so sick and it gets worse everyday. Also taking it with seroquel xr may be having side effects. Dr. has yet to get back with me. So sick but feel like I am starving. without dr. order i stop taking them. | F | 39 | 75 3X day | 4/28/2016 | 3 | Anger | Nauseous all the time. I get sick every morning.

Worked the first month but now it makes me feel depressed. Decided to stop taking it and the feelings are worse plus a slight bit of paranoia. | F | 22 | 2 months 150 | 3/9/2016 | 4 | Depression | Wellbutrin/ bupropion is a great solution for depression. Not many side effects until my pharmacy changes generic suppliers. Over the years the pharmacy just changes suppliers, and with that my life changes dramatically. In 2012 I was switched to the Generic bupropion by Teva. I felt horrible, I don't think there was any active drug in the pills. 2 years later studies proved Teva had manufacturing problems and it was taken off the market. Now, I was switched to Sun Phama Generic, 100 mg SR. I've been taking 4 days and feel horrible. Like my life is flushing down the toilet. I'm just numb and very spacey, I don't think there is any active Bupropion in the Sun Pharma pills. I'm going through withdrawal after 12 years on the medicine. Never again will I accept the pharmcies Sun pharma pills. I'm switching pharmacies and will always verify who makes the generic before I accept the RX. I wish I could afford the name brand Wellbutrin. I usually feel great on the Sand | M | 55 | 12 years 200mg 1X day | 2/21/2016 | 4 | slight depression | more energy, more motivation, loss of appetite, a little less stressed. increase in libido, the thought of smoking makes me sick. | I was on celexa 20mg and after taking it for 4 months i went back for a checkup and found out i gained 22 lbs. my doctor suggested i try welbutrin. (im using the generic version bupropian hcl XL) so far so good. I can tell i have lost a few pounds already and I am motivated to exercise daily and watch what i eat. I am also paying more attention to myself. It has only been 10 days but, I can tell the difference. Im praying the effects continue. | F | 46 | 10 days 150 1X day | 2/18/2016 | 5 | Depression | Sleeplessness, weight loss, increased libido | Helps my anxiety. Gained lots of weight on cipralex but now body is shedding that excess weight. | F | 46 | 2 years 15g | 2/6/2016 | 3 | Quit smoking, and anxiety | Parniod and emotional, | I have not taken it long at all, however I've notice on most of the comments and reviews of this drug most of every one over 25 is rating the drug dissatisfied or under 3. And most of every one that is under 25 years old rates 3 and above. I don't know if, I have felt the actual side effects because I haven't taken it long. It hasn't subsided the urge to smoke or smoking persa, I actually smoke a lot for being 24. I hope it starts working for my anxiety and smoking. But no bad side effects "knock on wood" lol. | F | 24 | 4 days 100 HCL | 2/5/2016 | 5 | Depression | Dizziness as soon as i take it.Has helped with my depression and made sexual part even better. | How long does the dizziness last? | F | 36 | 3 weeks 100mg x2 | 1/9/2016 | 5 | Depression, Anxiety, Quit smoking | Unable to sleep/eat, unable to have an erection or preform sexualy, and mild diarrhea followed by severe diarrhea followed by extreme diarrhea. | All in all a wonderful medication and experience. 10/10 would take again. | M | 34 | 1 days 150 MG | 11/25/2015 | 1 | Taking for depression | Extreme pain in my head and neck. Thought maybe I'd pulled a muscle until I looked up side effects of this medication. | F | 40 | 1 weeks 150 | 11/7/2015 | 2 | Depression, ADHD, PTSD, Anxiety | Weight gain, headaches, depression, sleepiness... | I took the brand name over ten years ago, it was great! I had energy, a will to live, and my depression was much better. This garbage they replaced it with is unreal...I believe it's manufactured in India and seems like there are a host of unpleasant, foreign ingredients in this new mix. I don't care what any pharmacist or doctor says about generic being the same as brand ( same active ingredients) that's a complete lie. Your patients are not crazy, they are depressed. Start listening and fix this!! Why tamper with something that was not broken to begin with? I'm tired of feeling this way. | F | 42 | 8 months 300 MG | 9/25/2015 | 3 | Severe Depression | Trembling, Twitching, Paranoia, Decreased Heart Rate, Anxiety (strangely enough) | It helped a bit but worsened my anxiety for the longest time, I'm unsure whether additional medications fixed this or the effects subsided on there own. | M | 16 | 6 months 100 1X day | 7/14/2015 |
